Garage Beirut receives broad praise for authentic Lebanese cuisine, with fresh, flavor-packed mezze and well executed grilled dishes like shish taouk, kebabs and kafta, along with crowd favorites such as hummus, baba ghannouj, labneh, muhammara and fattoush that many reviewers rate as standout or keeping a homey Beirut vibe. The atmosphere is described as cozy, intimate and welcoming, often compared to dining at a friend's house, and the service is usually friendly, attentive and efficient, though a few mentions of slow moments or crowded conditions exist. Reservations are commonly recommended because the space is small and usually busy, and some comments note that the restaurant can be pricey for portion sizes or that certain tasting plates feel expensive; a booking fee and occasional sound issues in a tight room are also cited by a minority. Overall Garage Beirut is regarded as one of the best Lebanese spots in the city, delivering authentic flavors, high quality ingredients and a memorable dining experience that keeps diners coming back.
Hands down the best Lebanese food I have tried, & not just in Canada. I would love to mention the food item I liked most but I can't chose just one... so here goes: Kafka stayed flavorful & juicy; tabbouleh perfect; mohamarrah incomparable; soujok omg!!!; mixed grill was tender flavorful & generous ❤️
Good spot for Lebanese food. The staff was so helpful, assisting us in choosing the right dishes & how much we should order quantity-wise for the group.
Garage Beirut offers an exceptional Mediterranean dining experience with its Lebanese mezze & charcoal-grilled meats. The atmosphere is cozy & the manager Naji extremely accommodating. The mezze, including creamy hummus, exquisite muhamarra, refreshing tabbouleh, mouth watering sujok , & freshly stuffed grape leaves, was outstanding. The mixed grill platter we shared between 3 people had a generous portion of chicken & beef kebabs, was grilled to perfection with a smoky, tender, & juicy flavor. The knowledgeable & attentive staff added to the delightful experience. For anyone who loves Mediterranean cuisine, this restaurant is a must-visit, earning a well-deserved five-star rating.
This is undeniably the best Lebanese restaurant in Montréal. Every dish tastes & looks perfectly authentic. My recommendations are the fatteh dishes, muhammara, & baba ghanouj. I've visited Garage Beirut plenty of times in the last six years & can attest that the quality of their food has remained top-notch.
